    I went back to where I found the 1690s coin this afternoon and found this stone relic.  Best guess is it is an ancient pestle or net weight.  There were a lot more natives on this site than French.

    View is front on, top and bottom.

    I've got hundreds of points and scrapers but these larger stone artifacts are rare.  Only this, two axes, a ceremonial spear and an etched mystery piece.

    That is a neat and interesting artifact. The shape is perfect so not sure it could be a grinding stone. Maybe it's a hammer  dontknow
